I was reminded when updating my website for the first time in about a year last night/ early this morning that I haven't been blogging my publications like I used to. So, here is the latest one that I know of, an interview with Magpie Photography in Rebelicious magazine with some fun Star Wars themed photos we shot on my last Norfolk trip. I actually won the custom latex Storm Trooper bikini from Shhh! Couture in a Facebook competition :D The Star Wars necklaces were lent for the shoot by Chimeric Garnish. Skincare as always by Bareskin Beauty.

I work with so many great photographers, many of whom are hobbyists and really not interested in promoting themselves, so people don't often get to see their work. I'm going to try and do a regular Photographer Showcase post here on my blog to share with you some of the work that I get to see and be involved with. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do :)

My first showcased photographer is Dirk Glassly, who I shot with at his home studio in Norwich on 29th July. This was the first time we worked together and we covered a real range of styles over the day, from art nude to vintage fashion. Here are my personal favourites (click the pictures to see larger versions):

I think this is one of my favourite art nude shots to date <3 i="">3>

This is Dirk Glassly's reference for me:

I was so fortunate to work with Anita this week after more than a year
since we first made contact, the delay being due to my move to Norfolk.
All the pre-shoot arrangements were perfect and she arrived with the
outfits we discussed, full of enthusiasm and ready to start work. She
is so good to work with - buzzing with energy and creative
contributions. She even responded positively to my wackiest ideas,
braving waist-high nettles, and posing nude on a sea of shredded rubber
(!). And throughout she was elegant, positive, good humoured and
enthusiastic. And always looking for the best pose and best use of the
light, totally committed to getting the best images possible - she is
the complete professional. Her posing on the spiral staircase was
amazing (photo already awarded an FPI). Moreover, she is a truly lovely
person, interesting to talk to and fun to spend time with. Recommended
without reservation.

And this is my recommendation for him:

I had a full day shoot with Paul at his home this summer. We shot some
location nudes and portraits as well as creative studio portraits. Paul
is great to work with, friendly, professional and artistic, and I really
liked the photos we got. His hospitality is also wonderful! I would love to work with Paul again and would recommend him to any other model.

If you're a model interested in working with Paul, you can contact him on ModelMayhem.
